Pork Is the New Black

First Bacon Whores turns out to be a hoax, and now this. The Trio today roundup showed up in my inbox with something about Mo's Bacon Bar in the subject line. I immediately assumed that some genius had seen the porkaissance that New York seems to be in the grip of, and opened an establishment that would allow one to compress the year-long Onstad baconspiel into a single evening. I imagined a boom market in bacon sommeliers, and tedious articles about which bacon to pair with which cask-conditioned ale. But no. Mo's Bacon Bar is a fucking candy bar. What Garfield said.
